The acquisition of rhetorical structure and function grammar can be very helpful for academicians to achieve the wanted goal which is, of course, the Publication of their RAs. This study aims to investigate the current level of familiarity to academic rhetoric within a systemic functional grammar among the Iranian ESP teachers and ESP course learners. The participants of the study consist of 10 ESP teachers and 85 learners at M.A and PhD level at Ilam state university and Islamic Azad university of Ilam. Data collected through self-report questionnaires with 22 items. The finding of this study revealed that the familiarity of ESP teachers with structures is too high and learners are high. Keywords: Academic Rhetoric, Systemic Functional grammar, ESP teachers, ESP course learners Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction Writing has become central in today’s schools and universities as a measure for academic success. Students work hard to learn how to make more informed decisions about their writing and gain more control over improvement of English writing skill (Jahin, 2012). Therefore, the acquisition of rhetorical structure and function grammar (Halliday, 1985) can be very helpful for academicians to achieve the wanted goal which is, of course, the publication of their research articles (RAs). One of the main concerns of the writers is the publication of research articles which can reward their authors and writers high reputation and become a kind of motivation for them to perpetuate the advancement in their vocations (Kanoksilapatham, 2007). These worthwhile issues have urged writers to focus on writing for publication. However as long as writing is regarded to be a culturally bounded phenomenon (Kaplan,1966) publication of research articles in English seems a challenging task for native and non-native writers. Therefore, for a long time academic genre analysis has been announced to assist writers to come up with their wishes. The kernel organization of segments of RAs can to a great extent determine their publication (Belcher & Braine, 1995; (در فایل دانلودی نام نویسنده موجود است) تکه هایی از متن پایان نامه به عنوان نمونه : (ممکن است هنگام انتقال از فایل اصلی به داخل سایت بعضی متون به هم بریزد یا بعضی نمادها و اشکال درج نشود ولی در فایل دانلودی همه چیز مرتب و کامل است) TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgment………………………………………………………………………….IV Dedication………………………………………………………………………………….V Table of content……………………………………………………………………………VI List of tables………………………………………………………………………………..IX List of abbreviation…………………………………………………………………………X Abstract ……………………………………………………………………………………..1 Chapter 1: Introduction. 2 1.1 Introduction. 3 1.2 Statement of the Problem.. 6 1.3 Significance of the study. 7 1.4 Research Questions. 8 1.5 The Research hypothesis. 8 1.6.

The kernel organization of segments of RAs can to a great extent determine their publication (Belcher & Braine, 1995; Swales, 1990; Kelly & Bazerman, 2003). There are some influential factors in an acceptable organization of academic texts, one of which is the realization of academic conventions. It is generally believed that being aware of principles dominating the standardized structure of academic research articles can lead to successful publication. Acquisition of rhetorical structure and functional grammar (Halliday, 1985) can be very helpful for academicians to achieve the wanted goal which is indeed, the publication of papers. Pedagogic materials exist for teaching these skills but to date. There has been little interactive online assistance available. (Susan Birch.Becaas&Ray cook). Swales, 1990; Kelly & Bazerman, 2003).
